About Binders for Paints & Coatings

Binders are an essential part of a coating's makeup. They are what holds the pigments in place and binds all the ingredients of the coating together. All of these ingredients are what makes up a coating's protective attributes. Getting the correct ratio of binders in your coatings makes a big difference in its appearance and durability. Binders can also be acknowledged as resins, and when placed together with a solvent they can be referred to as the vehicle or catalyst. Binders are the only ingredient that must be in the mix, so that everything else meshes together.
